Hey everyone.
Ok, there's this once-a-week extracurricular class that I take, at which I've met a girl whom I've grown to like a lot. She's sort of the shy type. I'm trying to interpret the signals she's given me, so please tell me your thoughts.
It was her who first initiated contact with me. Since then, we've spent a lot of time together talking and stuff. In the past, she's arbitrarily gone out of her way to be near me, and she's given me a couple of random smiles. There's been some physical contact between us, but nothing huge; just pats on the shoulder or arm or chest. That was first initiated by me -- one time I was sitting next to her and I patted her knee as I got up. She responded with a smile and a pat on the arm. In recent weeks, we usually hug when parting after the class.
So... about me. Though I'm kind of quiet, I have a lot of confidence in myself. Numerous girls that I know have called me good-looking or handsome, or even hot. For some reason, though, I have some kind of phobic reaction to the thought of revealing my feelings for a girl. The last time I saw the girl in question, I planned to tell her how I felt and ask her out, but my body just wouldn't obey my mind. Any tips or strategies for this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
